Shakira stopped walking. Her eyes, calm and composel, turned toward Mitchell. She said, "When Lago tried to hurt me that time, you saved me. Are you calling in that favor now?"

Mitchell was struggling, for between options. He never intendell for Shakira to repay him, nor did he want to use this ro confine her. But now, things were different and he really had no her option. Mitchell's expression was incredibly strained, and he just said, "I just hope that one day, we can truly be a family."

Shakira nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

"I'll come tomorrow night, but I must tell you, your hope will never come true. After speaking, she gave Mitchell a deep look before turning around to leave.

Behind her, Mitchell remained hopeful and shouted, "I believe that day will come!"

Shakira didn't stop, continuing her way forward. In her mind, she silently thought, 'It would never happen! Even if I die!"

On Friday night, Shakira arrived five minutes early at the entrance of the Paniago Hotel. There were high society figures in designer clothes all around and luxury cars came and went in an orderly manner.

In her simple white shirt and worn-out jeans, Shakira seemed out of place here.

The Nelson family arrived around the same time and could easily spot the striking Shakira from the entrance.

Rebecca's face instantly darkened inside the car. "What's with her dressing up like she's picking up trash and dining with us at an event like this? Isn't she embarrassing us all?"

Cody also wasn't pleased. He thought, 'The Paniago Hotel is one of Crescentville's top business venues, where many big-time entrepreneurs choose to discuss deals. There's a chance we might run into someone we know the moment we get out of the car.'

He mused, 'If an old friend saw us hanging out with Shakira looking like that, it would completely ruin the Nelson family's image.

Cody, with a stern face, instructed the driver, "Drive around once and then come back."

Yvette, who was in the same car, linked arms with Rebecca and whispered, "Don't you think Shakira will even get through the hotel entrance dressed like that? Should I go down and help her?"
